I thought of doing the following:

---------
// Note: attribute list is NULL
int searchStatus = ldap_search_s( LDAPPtr , "o=ldap_abc.de" ,
LDAP_SCOPE_SUBTREE , "(ou=Mkt)" , NULL , 0 , &response ) ;
int countOfResultEntries = ldap_count_entries( LDAPPtr , response ) ;
---------

The above approach gives back the 'count' correctly. Now, my only concern
is whether any entries will be returned to the client(what I want is to
get only the 'count' and nothing else in the client side), eventhough I
have made the required 'attribute list' as NULL.

Does anybody have information on what will be the behaviour?

Thanks!
